THE FLOOD Danger is rising! Casper Van Dien and Nicky Whelan star in this creature feature in the style of Crawl (2019) and Rogue (2007), about a group of inmates staging an escape from a prison that’s been hit by a hurricane. Flooded with relentless, man-eating alligators, the inmates and security guards must band together to survive the night with all limbs still attached.

WHITE LOTUS: SEASON TWO The Emmy Award-winning series returns for its critically praised second season, which is set at the White Lotus Resort in Sicily, Italy. Jennifer Coolidge reprises her role from the first season and is joined by a rabble of odd characters whose stay at the holiday hotel results in an outrageous series of complications for the venue’s strict, no-nonsense manager. Aubrey Plaza, F. Murray Abraham, Tom Hollander, and Michael Imperiolo also star. ENTER THE DRAGON (4K) This iconic and influential martial arts film starring Bruce Lee celebrates its 50th anniversary with this stunning 4K release, featuring a fully restored version of the film, and including three minutes of footage never seen in the theatrical version. Considered to be the quintessential fight film, Enter the Dragon laid the blueprint for what would become the popular fight tournament genre, and is essential for all respectable action movie collections. 23/8/23 TV Comedy RUSSIAN DOLL: SEASON TWO The mind-bending exploits of Russian Doll continue in the highly anticipated second season, which sees Nadia and Alan (Natasha Lyonne and Charlie Barnett), having escaped the mortal time-loop of the first season, finding themselves caught in a time-warp and face-to-face with their former selves. A third season has recently been greenlit, making now the perfect opportunity to get on board. PLANE Gerard Butler delivers another action-packed thriller with Plane . He plays a commercial airline pilot who saves his passengers from a lightning strike by safely landing the aircraft on a nearby island. Unbeknownst to him, there’s a brutal civil war brewing, and most of his passengers are taken hostage by dangerous rebels. In classic Butler style, a can of whoop-ass is opened as he joins forces with an accused murderer being transported on the flight to save the other passengers. 23/8/23 Action 23/8/23 TV Sci-Fi
